TMZ Sports has been busy keeping up with Johnny Manziel of late. On back-to-back nights, they spent time outside a West Hollywood nightclub (and went inside on Friday night) with the embattled former Browns quarterback.
Manziel was linked to the Broncos last week when news surfaced that he and head coach Gary Kubiak (both former Texas A&M quarterbacks) had been in touch.
On Saturday night, Manziel told TMZ that he’s living in L.A. with Broncos linebacker and Super Bowl MVP Von Miller.
This should be very good news for Manziel, who is trying to turn his life around after his wild and crazy lifestyle effectively cost him his job in Cleveland. Miller had been on a similar path during the early part of his career, being suspended from games for a NFL drug policy violation. The two-time All-Pro has been on the straight and narrow of late and could be a major positive influence in Manziel’s life.
However, Mike Klis of KUSA says a source close to Miller confirms Manziel is not living with the Broncos linebacker.

Either way, Miller’s influence hasn’t spread quite fast enough. When TMZ caught up with Manziel on Friday night, they also caught him slamming a bottle of champagne.
Miller has been outspoken about wanting the fellow Aggie to join the Broncos.
